Proformance Floors

Polished concrete.

The slab you already have, ground, honed, densified and polished into a hard, sealed, reflective floor that stops dusting and cleans with a mop.

What polishing actually does.

A bare or failing slab dusts, pits and stains. Polishing removes the weak surface, hardens what is left with a densifier, and closes the pores so the concrete itself becomes the finished floor.

It is the lowest maintenance commercial floor there is, because there is no coating to wear through. Matte, satin or high gloss, with optional stain and dye for color, and exposed aggregate if you want the terrazzo look.

Warehouses, distribution centers, retail, showrooms, schools and offices all use it. It reflects light, so the space gets brighter, and forklifts roll on it without tearing anything up.

How it goes in.

The order matters. Every step exists because skipping it shows up later.

  1. StripExisting coatings come off with PCD or 16 to 25 grit metal bond diamonds, depending on thickness.
  2. RepairCracks and joints get sealed so they polish clean.
  3. Grind40, 80 and 150 grit metal bond, two passes each, to flatten and open the slab.
  4. DensifyA densifier soaks in and hardens the concrete so it stops dusting for good.
  5. Hone and polish100, 200 and 400 grit resin bond, then up to 800 grit for the shine you want.
  6. ProtectA stain guard on top for the areas that see spills.

Every review, five stars.

Will use Proformance floors again and recommend them to anyone needing a flooring treatment. Mr. Simon was very quick to get a quote to me, and without the mark up that a few other installers quoted me. The quality and price are unmatched.

Craig and his son-in-law Jared did a great job of prepping our garage floor and installing the epoxy with colored flakes. We were very happy with the work as well as how quickly they were able to start the work following the quote.

Polished concrete questions.

Does polished concrete need to be recoated?
There is no coating to wear through, so there is nothing to recoat. A periodic burnish and the right cleaner keep the shine. That is why facility managers like it.
Will it stop the dusting?
Yes. The densifier reacts inside the concrete and hardens it. Dusting is a symptom of soft, open concrete, and the treatment removes the cause.
Can you polish a floor that already has epoxy on it?
Yes. The old coating comes off in the first step with the grinder, then the slab is polished like any other.
How shiny can it get?
Anywhere from matte to a mirror finish at 800 grit. Most commercial floors land at a satin or semi gloss that hides traffic well.
